Alas, your scouring wasn't all that absolute. 

I have found five syrups in Mountain Town and I haven't finished looking around MT yet.  (I am playing on the PV start game which is advanced.)  I haven't found many in the other areas that I have visited, but in those areas I was more concerned about surviving the cold than looking for syrup.  I have survived 189 days and probably found a total of around 10 syrups.

I now wish that I had saved the image when I found the syrup, although I don't like spoiling the challenge for others.

Every load is different.. some people say they find 4 maple syrups in one house sometimes. It's basically luck of the draw.

I have absolutely scoured these maps (Mountain Town, Mystery Lake, Broken Railroad, Ravine, and Bleak Inlet) and have so far only found 8 maple syrups in a single run. When I say scour I mean every cave, dead body, building ect any place of interest. So unless I find about 10 in Pleasant Valley the average isn't very good haha.

SPOILER ALERT:
Bleak Inlet -> (1) in one of the lockers in the wolfy cannery factory
Broken Railroad -> (2) one in the Hunting Lodge and another down into the ravine on dead body

Mystery Lake -> (2) Trappers Homestead in backpack (I haven't looted the Dam yet, I find it so long and tedious) and Abandoned Lookout on the dead body

Forlorn Muskeg -> (1) The marsh ridge on the dead body (sneaky!)

Mountain Town -> (1) Milton House on the pantry in the shelves out in open

Ravine -> (1) Dead body at the bottom of the ravine by the rope

I only partially looked in Forlorn Muskeg and Coastal Highway thus far; I'm currently in Desolation Point and nothing... so I guess we'll see how it goes.
